I see ya woke up this mornin’
The world turned upside down
Lordy, but a-things ain’t been the same
Since the Jag drove in-a town

I confess, not only am I conflicted, but I think it would probably be better with some modern rims.
Wow, who knew that those Mk xx's were made to be slammed? The hood and nose is just magnificent. I'm not sure I can really get behind the ivory over green scalloping, but that is a minor inconvenience. Those whitewalls, wheels covers and spats really work.
Looks like it came straight out a cartoon.
Get's BЯдΖǐL-ЯЄРΘЯΤЄЯ's approval stamp.
There is nothing about this car that I do not love. If there is burled walnut and wool carpeting, I may not be able to sleep tonight.
I should hate this but I don't. The Mark X/420 was in my opinion the best-looking Jaguar sedans ever built, and this is a nice lead-sled modification.
I can almost smell the Eau de 420.
I'm not usually into slamming and all those other customization fads but this is truly beautiful. Do want
Absolutely brilliant. I never would have guessed, but it works.
Oh. My. God. I am in love.
Registered owner? The Duke of Earl, of course.
Oh, this works for me. I want to see under the hood, I hope the six is detailed to the nines. This is one gorgeous car.
Holy smokes is this cool. I had to find out more about this so I did some Google Foo and found these: http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/02/behold-the-flu…

PS Feds _II, not only does it have walnut and wool, it has….'crocodile-stamped leather accents'….
Holy crap, it's John Fluevog's car! CardboardTube from 'Toasters has actually met John a few times. He's a Vancouverite, and apparently a pretty awesome guy. Now this proves that.
It takes a minus for the LT1, but the rest is drool worthy.
I'm not a big fan of Jags or lead sleds, but I love this thing.
That is a work of art – quite drool-worthy.
This is one of those heart-warming hooniverse moments for me. Before clicking in, I thought to myself that I know I'm supposed to hate what's happening here (the sacrilege!) but actually I guiltily kind of love it. Scrolling down to the comments I see that we all feel the same way. The very careful photography helps sell it a lot too. How could you resist?
Looks like it's right out of an "Alternate universe, film noir crime drama" graphic novel.
